SHE’S SO STUPID SHE THINKS ANYONE WHO DISAGREES WITH THE LEFT IS OBVIOUSLY UNINFORMED:   “Ignorant And Uneducated” – Alexandria Ocasio Cortez On Charlie Kirk.

THEY’RE STILL CLAIMING THE SHOOTER’S MOTIVES WERE UNKNOWN???  NPR’s Latest Article on the Charlie Kirk Assassination Is Why It Got Defunded.

WHEN WAS ANYONE EVER PROSECUTED FOR SHOUTING FIRE IN A CROWDED THEATER?  Hey, NYT, There a Glaring Error in Your Op-Ed About Free Speech.

BECAUSE OF COURSE THEY DID:  Revolution Wind Developers Apparently Ignored Fed’s Information Requests Related to National Security and Fisheries.

THE EDUCATION ESTABLISHMENT NEEDS TO BE RAZED AND THE GROUND SALTED:  DemocRat Depravity.

DISGUSTING, DEPRAVED, DEMENTED:  “Pro-Palestinian” Jewish Museum Murderer Recorded Killings On His Own Bodycam.

This scares me… a little.

TO BE FAIR BECAUSE THAT’S WHAT ALL RESIDENTS GET:  Why are the hospitals only paying $55k if the role is so important?

And for the x-less.

TO BE FAIR, WE’RE ALL RANDOS TO THE SELF PROCLAIMED “ELITES”:  Mother ‘furious’ after Rep. Crockett calls daughter murdered by illegal migrant a ‘random dead person’.

THIS IS WHAT I WAS TRYING TO SAY DAYS AGO:  Control of the media is a two-edged sword.

AND FOR: the x-less.

Understand, right now we need to pry the control out of the lunatics’ hands, but we should not, under any circumstances, fall into the trap they did. If you isolate your followers to only approved opinions, you weaken yourself.

THEY’RE NOT DONE:  Over the last 5 days, agencies terminated and descoped 87 wasteful contracts with a ceiling value of $2.1B and savings of $673M, including a $509k State Dept. professional support contract for an “Iran press assistant position in the Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs”, a $509k State Dept. professional support contract for a “press advisory specialist in the Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs”, and a $911k NASA climate & sustainability contract for “integrating Earth observations toward advancing equitable resilience to geo-hazards in a changing climate”.

And this is for all the X-less.

OPEN THREAD: You know what to do.

ROAD TRIP! Where Is Starman Today? SpaceX’s Roadster Update. But why is there a picture of pistons? And they seem to confuse miles per second with miles per hour.

HMM: Shockingly Common Injury Linked With Increased Dementia Risk. “Older adults who experience injurious falls are more likely to develop dementia within a year of their accident compared to people of the same age who have other kinds of physical injuries, according to a large study published in 2024. The findings from a team of researchers in the US do not prove falls contribute to dementia (although this can’t yet be ruled out either), but they do suggest that falls could be an early indicator of deteriorating brain conditions that lead to Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias.”

NOT SO MUCH FORGOTTEN, AS MEMORY HOLED: The forgotten Trump assassination attempt. “You might not be aware of it, but there is a trial going on in Florida for Ryan Routh, the man authorities say came within minutes of carrying out his plan to assassinate President Donald Trump on Sept. 15, 2024, during the presidential campaign.”

IF YOU LEFT ME THIS REVIEW FOR NO MAN’S LAND, KNOW THAT YOU MADE MY DAY/WEEK/YEAR/LIFE. I’VE NEVER BEEN THIS CHUFFED OVER A REVIEW BEFORE:

Of course there are downsides, too. I now have to go through all doorways sideways, because of my head being so swollen!  THANK YOU.

JONATHAN TURLEY: The funniest joke Jimmy Kimmel never told.

This week, Schiff is outraged by a company’s decision to suspend a host who refused to correct a false story he had spread.

For years, I appeared before these same leaders in Congress as they defended corporate censorship and dismissed allegations of collaboration with the government. I would not cancel Kimmel so long as his show was profitable. But I have long maintained that companies can limit the free speech of employees at work. I do not believe Kimmel should be censored on social media for spreading false information. At the same time, ABC does not have to lose money or viewers because an employee attacks others with vile, false claims.

Now Disney is accused of killing democracy itself, in league with Trump. Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) attacked Trump for “trying to destroy our democracy” and acting like “many would-be despots.” Rep. Maxwell Frost (D-Fla.) used Kimmel’s suspension as evidence that “fascism is not on the way, it is here.”

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) insisted that suspending a host for spreading false information about a murder was “North Korea-style stuff” while Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) insisted that it is “what Putin would do.” It is a curious spin, since Putin and Kim Jong Un value media figures who spread false information — particularly about murders.

Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) went so far as to compare Kimmel to Thomas Paine, the author of Common Sense and “Penman of the revolution.”

So Kimmel is now a hero of democracy — all he had to do was spread disinformation. That makes this the funniest joke that Kimmel never told.

I’m so old, I can remember when spreading “disinformation” was grounds for universal deplatforming. Apparently, that’s bad now, in the left’s eyes:

Every Democrat that opens their mouth and says a single thing about free speech needs to watch a video montage of themselves being complete and total hypocrites. pic.twitter.com/4JZpBSDFdm
